Londan, Monday.—This morning’s news from South Africa continues satisfactory. Official cables are not very detailed with regard to the Belmont incident, which, except for the loss of Col. Keith Falconer, was not bad.. There are sigas of greatly in- creased’ Boer activity in Natal and along the western frontier. All

: dispatches tend to show that the British are holding out well. Baden-Powell reports that all was well at Kimberly on November

_.6, x.Ladysmith, from which the latest dispatch was dated Thursday, was all well then. :

The situation shows Kimberly to be t d by i ing forces. .The bombardment began Tuesday. The investing lines being closer drawn, it is plain that the garrison may expect harder work for some time.’ Advices from the Orange Free State say troops are advancing into the north of Cape Colony, but owing to the reticence of the small British forces from the borderland, no serious collision has yet occurred.

Post-Intelligencet has been sold to the Northera Pacific’ Railway com- pany. E. C. Hughes, one of the attorneys of the Northern Pacific at’ Seattle, engineered the deal and has left for New York~ to. arrange de-

upon for: -

Of ‘this.

This money: ury of the ‘Northern Pacific, and that corpora-

‘tion will’control:the destinies: of the Post-Intelligencer.. It’ is expected that the: transfer of the property will be! made: about December 1. Edgar B.: Piper will remain as man- aging editor of the ‘paper tempora- - rily, and‘it is probable that he will be retained permanently in that po- sition... ‘This is upon the “authority of Hughes himself. :

The policy of the paper under the new management will be sound money, ‘fepublicanism and the Northern ‘Pacific railway.

The details: of the purchase are interesting. It is a- well known fact that D.:S.” Lamont, vice-presi- dent of the Northern Pacific, has- for some time desired to buy a néws-~ paper. in the state of Washington for his company... Abouta year ago he opened - negotiations wie the

when W.H.Cowles,the owner of the Review, ‘was'asked to name‘a piice. for his paper he «declined to do'sp. Lamont was prepared to pay as high as $250,000 for the bare paper without. the = building, — but_ Mr. Cowles**would= not listen to any proposition‘and 1 n Lamont then’ turned his attention to the Post-Intelligencer, and when | it came to the point of closing the +: deal he suggested to his attorneys in Seattle that if_some. of .the citi- zens of that’.town, who had_,ex- pressed great faith in the Post-In-~

In return for this invest- ment and guarantee they are to have political’control ot the paper, always with a view, however; to the.
